Oh ok then by the way I looked at the OP shortly after I looked at your reply to my post and I have nothing to say at this moment in time maybe later.
I hate friends. How many people do you know at the age of 40 that even have ANY friends? I don't know a single one. I wondered once why my dad never seemed to have any friends, so I asked - he told me it's all been for the same reason, you stick your neck out for them, but they aren't willing to do the same for you. That's why he hasn't had a friend since he was a kid. Ever since then I had always knew that I wouldn't end up like that as I grew up... wishful thinking. I always do my utmost to help out my friends. If you need me I'm there. If I say I'm going to be there or do something, I will. I do all that is asked and more with a smile on my face and don't ask for a penny in return, but whenever I need help with anything, nobody is to be found. And even if they show up to help, they whine the entire time and expect compensation for anything above the slightest amount of effort. Friends, the concept is laughable. How is friendship supposed to exist when all anyone ever cares about is themselves? Relationships in general should be considered as legitimate a concept as time travel. Nice to wish for and maybe plausible in theory, but in reality they they're utterly absurd. <.< QQ /rant
Wait are you saying you don't want to be my friend anymore? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SawuAp3urRs
I was just having a little rant about IRL friends, it's got nothing to do with anyone here on EP, don't worry.
I hate how the Humane society perches about having your dogs and cats spayed and nurtured but have the price jacked up to over $65 and refuse to help those who can't afford to pay $65 per animal
The only thing I rage about is myself, really. How I don't get things done, how I haven't done all the things I wanted to do and now, may never get them done. That sort of stuff. As for friends betraying you, I suppose to some extent that's true. But, those that don't appreciate it, or only want to use me, I stop doing things for them and they eventually leave by themselves. I wish them no ill will, either. Now, I'm left with just those that appreciate me for me. Down to two at the age of 48, though.
Uh... My parents both have old, loyal friends. So do I. Granted I'm not over forty... Are you okay Frost?
This thread is dangerous for me, because I have the urge to complain about everything xD Because I'm an engineer, it's my job to make systems and things better - so when I'm stuck in traffic and I look over to the poorly designed freeway ramp, and the improperly placed street lights or think about the terrible way cars are designed and the bad decisions people make driving... my entire life is just being surrounded by terribly designed things and wanting to fix them xD I don't want to rant too much about it, but my biggest complaint about the world is the lack of standardization and the total aversion by people to even trying to make things easier. I hate when people want to just keep doing things the way they always have been even when an easier, cheaper, faster, less dangerous, or just obviously better method or standard exists or could be devised. A little effort to fix a problem can save a lifetime, or even generations, of trouble that the problem is causing.
